I THINK I REMEMBER THAT THING FROM SPUDTECH

If my memory serves me, I believe a few years ago, I began a thread with one of my primitive semi-auto combustion designs (a freaking HUGE one). Someone made a test rig to see if recoil would be sufficient, and that video looks shockingly similar to the one someone made....

thats pretty dang cool

I wonder if theres a way to make it recoil back and then SLOWLY return to the foward position.........

if so, i think my next cannon will be something that fires taters and has recoil absorbtion like that...... along with wheels and a trailer hitch...... :D

I just made one today with a recoil thing it works pretty good and as simple as shooting it to build.
You can tell how awesome a cannon is by the pressure used.

I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges.
Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before.
